RE: Prop Thrust Measurement
I fly with a club that has about the same system you are thinking about. They went through a testing period with different engines and props and have it posted on there web site for people to look at. Every once in a while it comes out and people start running new tests. It's fun and easy to do. I haven't bothered to use it myself but I think it's using a digital scale so the old mark one eye balls can see it easier.
